Protons are not electrons. Protons (and neutrons) are in the family of subatomic particles called "baryons", while electrons are in the family called "leptons".
An isotope
Anion.
An ion
Atoms NEVER lose protons, just electrons.
15 electrons and 15 protons
Protons and electrons have mass and charge.
Protons do not contain electrons. Protons are positively charged, electrons negatively charged.
35 protons, 36 electrons
# of protons = # of electrons # of protons/ electrons + # of neutrons = atomic mass
protons and electrons
Protons, neutrons, and electrons can form any type of atom on the Periodic Table of Elements.The amount of protons determine what type of element an atom is.If the number of neutrons differ from the stable amount it should have, the atom is known as an isotope.If the amount of electrons differ from the amount of protons, the atom is known as an ion.
A covalent bond is held together by the attractions between the protons in the nucleus and shared electrons.
